SUMMARY:Social / Informal Gathering:DSI Welcome Back Ice Cream Social
DESCRIPTION:Mark your calendars and join us for this year's annual DSI Welcome Back Celebration! This year\, we will celebrate the start of a new academic year with the return of the build-your-own ice cream sundae bar.\n\nWe will have ice cream\, fellowship\, and announce this year's winners of the Nakamura Exceptional Teaching (NET) Award.\n\nWe will provide vanilla\, chocolate\, and vegan coconut blueberry ice cream. The DSI Community Favorite Flavor results are in\, and the winning flavors are Cookie Dough and Peachy Peach! In addition to ice cream\, we will have all of the toppings you need to make the perfect ice cream sundae\, as well as plenty of soda (that's \"pop\" for all of you native Michiganders) and cold brew if an ice cream float is more your style! \n\nPlease RSVP here if you plan to attend: https://forms.gle/a8BG3AHmyJLgCMCU9\n\nWe hope to see you there! Please contact Eric at dsi-administration@umich.edu if you have any questions.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Water@Michigan Coffee Talk: Changing Michigan Winters
DESCRIPTION:Talk Description: Climate change is not coming. It is here. We have seen it starkly in northern Michigan over the last three years.\n\nIn late March 2025\, a 60-hour freezing rain event coated far northern Michigan in up to an inch of ice\, collapsing the power grid\, cutting running water and communication to rural communities\, and leaving thousands without heat as temperatures then plunged. Ice up to an inch thick built on the Mackinac Bridge\, the most significant icing in its history\, forcing closures as slabs the size of garage doors fell from the cables. In June 2026\, four to seven inches of rain fell within hours across the Lower Peninsula\, triggering a state of emergency in three counties. Weeks later\, wildfire smoke drove July trip cancellations\, contributing to more than $6.6 billion in economic damages statewide\, the highest of any state.\nThis panel focuses on the changing winter behind events like these. Northern Michigan is not simply losing snow. It is losing winter as a season we can count on. Warmer air\, declining lake ice\, shorter snow cover\, and more frequent freeze-thaw cycles are restructuring winter into something more episodic. A December snowstorm\, a January thaw\, rain\, ice\, then another Arctic outbreak.\n\nThe consequences extend across the systems the region relies on. Thinning snowpack can expose soils and roots to freezing\, shift wildlife distributions\, and reduce plant productivity at large spatial scales. Winter recreation\, forestry\, and tourism all depend on cold and snow persisting long enough to plan around. For people\, longer tick activity windows can increase Lyme disease risk\, while the loss of reliable winter changes the traditions that connect families and communities to this place.\n\nOur panelists will explore these ecological\, economic\, and human dimensions together\, because the future of Michigan winters is not one story. It is many changes\, unfolding at once.\n\nModerator: Aimée Classen\, Professor\, LSA and Director of the U-M Biological Station\n\nPanelists: Ayumi Fujisake-Manome\, Associate Director & Associate Research Scientist\, Cooperative Institute for Great Lakes Research\; Jacob Napieralski\, Professor of Geology\; Director\, Environmental Interpretative Center\; U-M Dearborn\; and Inés Ibáñez\, Professor\; Associate Dean for Academic Affairs\, SEAS\n\nAbout Coffee Talks: Coffee Talks provide a monthly opportunity for U-M faculty\, staff\, and students interested in water\, and water-interested people in southeast Michigan to connect with colleagues\, learn about pressing and/or emerging water-related issues\, and meet new partners.\n\nThis academic year\, we are excited to Envision Resilient Great Lakes Futures—examining the future opportunities\, challenges\, and innovations shaping the region's water resources\, communities\, and ecosystems.\n\nCoffee Talks are in-person convenings designed to build connections as part of the U-M Water Center's mission and programs\; we are not recording sessions at this time.\n\nYou can register here: https://graham.umich.edu/wateratmichigan/coffee-talks

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Colloquium - First Proof: Mathematics putting AI to the test
DESCRIPTION:Lauren K. Williams received an AB from Harvard University and a PhD from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. She was a faculty member at the University of California\, Berkeley\, from 2009 to 2018\, prior to returning to Harvard University\, where she is currently the Dwight Parker Robinson Professor of Mathematics. Williams has received various honors\, including a MacArthur fellowship\, a Guggenheim fellowship\, and an NSF Career Grant. While her main research area is algebraic combinatorics (including total positivity and cluster algebras)\, her work is connected to shallow water waves (via soliton solutions of the KP equation)\, traffic flow and protein synthesis (the asymmetric simple exclusion process)\, and scattering amplitudes in high-energy physics. She is one of the editors of First Proof\, which has been benchmarking the ability of AI models to create mathematical proofs.\n\nFirst Proof provides objective\, up-to-date assessments of AI models’ ability to prove specified mathematical statements. This talk will review findings from the project’s first two problem batches and outline plans for its next phase.
